I'll Love You Forever

Yes, I'm dedicating the title of this post to my pants. Quite frankly they deserve it! They're the most comfortable pair of trousers I own, I can dress them up or down and they make my legs look longer. (Score!) Oh and did I mention they were only twenty bucks??? Oh how I love them so. I will never let them go.

Close-up of my hat. I love it too but not as much as my trousers. (Sorry, hat.) This is the one I found in a grocery store, next to the produce section ; ).

Well friends, we're halfway through the week! Can you believe it's already November? I saw a Christmas commercial for the first time this year today. I was kinda shocked but not really.

I'll be announcing an exciting Giveaway soon for all my readers so check back in a couple of days! Eeeeeeek, I can't wait!

i heard christmas music at kohl's dept. store today AND as i sat in side a bookstore cafe i watched men putting up christmas lights in the trees. but it's november. i've learned to expect it around this time, still it always seems to get here so fast!!

Kerri: I know, it's crazy! The grocery store is called 'Superstore' and they have a huge clothing section, the clothes are actually really nice and reasonably priced. The brand is called 'Joe Fresh' and they even have a make-up line!

YES to pants that elongate the legs! Especially when they come from Banana Republic ;) I saw that floppy hat a month ago when I went to a Joe Fresh event. It's super cute but it didn't look good on me (I have a big head!)

I study early modern English history and so writers and moralists from the period use the term "helpmeet" to refer to one's spouse. It's biblical ("it is not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him" -Genesis 2:18), although I use it because I'm a history geek not for the religious factor. Also I think it's a funny sounding word and I kind of love that.
